Dr. Harold Shipman

Dr. Death

Instead of working to save lives, Britain's Dr. Harold Shipman killed at least 218 of his own patients -- mostly elderly women -- and possibly as many as 508 with fatal injections of drugs from 1975 to 1998. He was caught after he forged a will bequeathing one victim;s fortune to himself. He hanged himself in 2004, the day before his 58th birthday.
